Parking Tips for Vail, Colorado
The Frontage Road will be used as overflow parking when all other
lots are filled. Please refer to the variable message signs located
at the main Vail off ramps (exit 1-76) to make sure the overflow
parking option is legally available upon your arrival. Hosts at
the parking garages are on hand to advise you about available parking
options. Once the frontage road has been released for overflow
use, park on the I-70 (north) side of the roadway, leaving as much
shoulder area as possible for your safety; avoid blocking driveways,
and leave plenty of space, as much as 50 feet, at intersections.
Perimeters on the frontage road which prohibit parking will be
clearly marked. During overflow situations, this parking is free
and available until 11 p.m.
Convert Your
Day-Trip to an Overnight Stay
Keep an eye on the weather while you're in Vail and consider staying
overnight if driving conditions are unsafe. Many of Vail's lodges
& hotels offer discounted reservations during Vail pass closures
along I-70.
